Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : From the perspective of appearance, it is beautiful, but from the perspective of the Shari'ah, what is its ruling?
The student: Even from the perspective of appearance, O Shaykh, it is well known that plucking the eyebrows is forbidden.

The Shaykh : Plucking the eyebrows, the jurists say: it is the plucking of the hair of the face, the plucking of the hair of the face. So they specified it as plucking. Therefore, according to their opinion, if it is cutting, it is not called plucking the eyebrows. And some scholars said: plucking the eyebrows is the shaping of the eyebrow hair, whether by plucking or otherwise. And this is better and more cautious.
The student: The Shaykh says everyone...

The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: Does it include the apparent and the hidden, definitely?

The student: A defect, a defect is possible, a defect, yes, but the apparent, if it is from the side of custom.

The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: Is it mentioned that it should be beautiful?

The Shaykh : By Allah, in any case, this beauty varies according to the people, according to the people.
The student: This beauty, this?

The Shaykh : No, this, O lover, this thing is known among the Arabs to be beautification. As for whether the Shari'ah is pleased with it or not, that is another matter. And whether it is beautiful or not beautiful, that is another matter.
The student: But if it is beautiful, it is not forbidden by the Shari'ah.

The Shaykh : No, no, it is possible that it is forbidden by the Shari'ah so that people do not become distracted by this thing, people become distracted by this thing, and the person is left with nothing but the grooming of himself and its improvement. Well, in any case.
